You’ve worked hard to get here.

You’ve landed the role, earned the title, and now you’re expected to lead.

But if you’re honest, parts of it feel overwhelming.

You’re navigating new dynamics, juggling bigger responsibilities, and trying to figure out how to lead others while still finding your own rhythm.

Maybe you’re asking yourself:

  • Am I really cut out for this?

  • How do I lead without having all the answers?

  • What if I don’t come across as confident enough?

You’re not alone.

Many talented professionals feel exactly the same when stepping into leadership.

It’s not about having it all figured out — it’s about getting the right support to grow into the leader you’re becoming.

That’s where I come in.

I help high-achieving women in leadership roles grow their confidence, strengthen their leadership presence, and lead with clarity — without burning out or playing small.

It’s time to step into leadership with the tools, support and strategy to thrive!

Hello, Hello!

I’m Janine.

I believe that you create the greatest impact when you lead from your strengths.

I spent years climbing the corporate ladder, navigating the high-stakes world of law, and working as sole legal counsel at multiple fast growing companies.

I know what it’s like to carry the weight of leadership. The pressure to perform, the unspoken expectations, the juggling act of showing up confidently while still figuring it all out.

But here’s what I also know:


Leadership isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about learning how to show up with clarity, authenticity, and intention.

After stepping away from law to launch my own coaching and consulting business, I channelled everything I’d learned about leadership, personal growth, and visibility into helping others do the same — but with more support than I had.

Today, I work with ambitious professionals and forward-thinking organisations to develop confident leaders who are ready to grow, communicate powerfully, and make meaningful impact — at work and beyond.

Whether I’m coaching a new leader, delivering a keynote, or helping a team create a culture of leadership, my mission is the same:

To help people lead from within — with clarity, confidence, and intention.

  • Her talk was very popular with employees

    “Janine recently delivered a virtual session for our employees across EMEA on "How to take ownership of your career". Her talk was very popular with employees, especially since she had valuable tips and ideas on how to take charge of your own future, even in challenging circumstances. We chose Janine for her expertise on the topic and for her ability to engage with the audience and share a genuine commitment to personal growth and development. I highly recommend Janine to other companies looking to engage with their employees on a range of enablement topics”

  • She delivered such an interesting, thought-invoking, and action-oriented session

    I used to work with Janine many moons ago and have followed her career on LinkedIn over the years, so I was ready when the opportunity arose to invite her to drop some gems at Collinson, and she did not disappoint. Janine was a fantastic and engaging speaker, and she delivered such an interesting, thought-invoking, and action-oriented session that I know for sure landed positively with Collinson’s people.

She has incredible energy and lights up the room - virtual ones included - with her engaging manner and expertise. I have worked alongside Janine for over a year now, and am excited to continue doing so; I recommend her wholeheartedly.
